We made reservations for Yosemite in August and are going overseas instead. We have several pre-paid campsites that we are not going to use. They are non-refundable. If anyone can use them, I would be more than happy to mail them to you. They are in my name, and already paid for, and you will have no problem using them as long as you have the printout with my NPS account number on it. Let me know. The dates/places I have are:

Sunday 8/13 Upper Pines, space #113 (Yosemite Valley - one night only)

Monday 8/14 Crane Flat, one night only

Tuesday 8/15 Hodgen Meadows, one night only

Wednesday 8/16-Thursday 8/17 Toulomne Meadows, 2 nights

Friday 8/18 - Toulomne Meadows, 1 night

Just be sure that you are going to use them before you ask for them. I hope someone can get some use out of them. I can give you more info about each campsite (driving time to the valley) if you need it.

It's so nice of you to put these up for grabs. If you get no takers here, you should try Trip Advisor Yosemite forum. There are some real Yosemite fans on that site.

Thanks. I didn't know about that website and will post there also. I just want someone to be able to use the reservations since I cannot.

A nice offer, dbaker; we have reservations for Tuolumne ourselves already, or I'd jump on it.

I'll top this in hopes someone who can use it will see.

For anyone who has thought of a camping trip to Yosemite but hasn't made reservations---this is a great opportunity. Campsite reservations, particularly in the Valley, are extremely difficult to get---they are grabbed up within hours (maybe minutes?) after the website opens up to accept them. And if dbaker experienced what I did on that particular day (I think it was March 15), the website wasn't working properly, so it took great persistence to succeed.

You also might try putting it up on ebay and craig's list.

dbaker,

You might also try http://groups.msn.com/HalfDomeCamcom They have a chat page and I know a lot of those people love to go up to Yosemite and camp.

I think it's great you're doing this rather than just letting those reservations go unused.

Thanks, I'll do it.

Thanks for the advise in posting to the other 2 websites. I found a new, happy owner for the reservations. Glad she can use them.
